What better sign can there be that MSNBC is chock full of incessant whiners who bitterly complain about everything than the cable network’s viewers believing all is lost?
A new Yahoo! News/YouGov poll showed that nearly 2 out of every 3 MSNBC viewers believed their “side” was losing on political issues that mattered most — never mind that the Democratic Party, which is controlled by the left-wing of the party, controls both chambers of Congress and the White House.
“Thinking about the way things have been going in politics over the last few years on issues that matter to you, would you say your side has been losing more often than winning, winning more often than losing, or not sure?” the survey asked.
Overall, 48 percent of the respondents said they were “losing more often than winning,” while 13 percent said they were “winning more often than losing.” For 35 percent, they were “not sure” what temperature the water was.
When breaking it down by subgroups, 63 percent of MSNBC viewers believed their side has been losing more often than winning. This compared to 48 percent of Fox News viewers saying their side is losing more and 45 percent of CNN viewers feeling that way.
Just 21 percent of MSNBC viewers said their side is “winning more often than losing,” compared to 29 percent of CNN viewers and 27 percent of Fox News viewers.
Meanwhile, MSNBC is proud of one thing, having the greatest share of Trump Derangement Syndrome sufferers:
Thank you to our loyal @MSNBC viewers!

While the fare on CNN and MSNBC is very similar, the latter network features hosts like Joy Ann Reid and Tiffany Cross, who push a bitter, racially divided narrative day after day that feeds into the darkest views of America.
The poll comes as the left still smarts over the Supreme Court overturning the landmark abortion rights decision Roe v. Wade, and on the heels of mass shootings in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, which resulted in the Democrat-led Congress passing a watered-down version of gun control that fell well short of what most on the left desire.
Even some on the left found the polling results remarkable, given that MSNBC viewers may be “the most brainwashed audience in America,” according to leftist Cenk Uygur:
63% of @MSNBC viewers say their side is losing more often than it's winning. And that's arguably the most brainwashed audience in America. They're told 24/7 Democratic leadership is greatest thing on earth and absolute geniuses. And they still think Democrats are getting killed!
